Louis Andriessen pays tribute to SAT his pupil and friend Steve Martland who died earlier this SAT week. Marin Alsop and Nigel Simeone review a new book in SAT which Jonathan Cott retells the story of the night he had SAT dinner with the composer, conductor and vital life force SAT that was Leonard Bernstein and Suzy delves into the inner SAT workings of a piano as she joins the members of the SAT Pianoforte Tuners Association as they celebrate their SAT centenary. SAT SAT Juan Diego Florez SAT SAT For the world’s leading opera houses, Juan Diego Flórez is SAT very much the bel canto tenor of choice. In this week’s SAT edition of Music Matters he takes time out from rehearsals SAT for Rossini’s La Donna del lago at the Royal Opera House, SAT Covent Garden to talk to Suzy Klein. He describes his SAT constant search for vocal perfection and how he always SAT keeps his phone at the side of the stage to record and SAT listen back to his performances. Flórez also reveals that SAT his voice is developing richer colours which will lead to SAT him being able to take on new operatic roles. SAT SAT Dinner with Lenny SAT SAT The conductor, composer and vital life-force that was SAT Leonard Bernstein was one of the music world’s great SAT talkers, but rarely was he interviewed in such an informal SAT way as revealed in a new book: ‘Dinner with Lenny’. When SAT Jonathan Cott was invited to talk to Bernstein for Rolling SAT Stone magazine, in what was to be the composer’s last major SAT interview the result was a vodka and cigarette fuelled SAT discourse on all matters musical, political, psychological SAT and spiritual. Some 20 years after the event Cott has SAT reworked the whole 12 hour marathon into a book which Suzy SAT discusses with Bernstein’s pupil - conductor Marin Alsop and SAT Nigel Simeone who has just finished editing Bernstein’s SAT enormous correspondence. There’s also the chance to hear SAT some of the actual recordings of the conversation made by SAT Cott on the night. SAT SAT Steve Martland (1959-2013) SAT SAT Earlier this week the Liverpool-born composer Steve Martland SAT died in his sleep at the age of 53. He was a unique figure SAT in British music: independent, passionate and politically SAT motivated with a questioning spirit. He founded his own SAT ensemble The Steve Martland Band which performed his brand SAT of rhythmic, energetic and hugely positive music and ran his SAT own pioneering summer school, Strike Out, for young SAT school-age composers. In this week’s programme we hear part SAT of an interview Martland gave with Tom Service for Music SAT Matters in 2009 and Suzy talks to Martland’s teacher and SAT friend Louis Andriessen who assesses his career and SAT importance. SAT SAT Pianoforte Tuners’ Association Centenary SAT SAT To end the programme Suzy travels to Bournemouth to help SAT celebrate the Pianoforte Tuners’ Association as they mark SAT their 100th anniversary with a special AGM. She discovers SAT why its members are so passionate about beats, overtones and SAT equal temperament, finds out about the joys and trials of SAT tuning pianos that can be anything from one year to two SAT hundred years old and at a time when the number of piano SAT sales are shrinking, she finds out whether the future looks SAT rosy for the piano tuner. SAT SAT 13:00 The Early Music Show b01scxdg (Listen) SAT Artist Profile: David Wulstan SAT SAT On today's Early Music Show Catherine Bott talks to David SAT Wulstan, a pioneering figure in the understanding and SAT interpretation of early music in general, and of music of SAT the Tudor period in particular. SAT SAT In the 1960s and 1970s David Wulstan created The Clerkes of SAT Oxenford. With this group of singers he worked tirelessly to SAT produce revelatory recordings of the music of Tallis, SAT Sheppard, Gibbons, Tye, White, and others, which SAT revolutionized the way it was interpreted, and the way we SAT now hear it today. SAT SAT The debt owed to David Wulstan by many of today's performers SAT and practitioners of early music is immense, and many SAT important figures, such as Harry Christophers, began their SAT careers studying or performing with him. One of those people SAT joins in today's conversation: Sally Dunkley, the singer and SAT scholar who first encountered David Wulstan at a University SAT of Oxford entrance interview, studied with him, and has SAT continued to work with him and share his friendship until SAT today. SAT SAT David Wulstan is a fascinating, erudite and colourful SAT contributor to the appreciation of early music. When the SAT word musicologist is mentioned, he threatens to make use of SAT his martial arts skills. How will Catherine Bott fare...?

Donal Sarsfield's SAT work for solo violin and strings explores the natural space SAT between water and wood: an amplified violin weaves its way SAT through taped sounds of an old chair squeeking and the night SAT rain falling. Ryan Molloy recalls the old ways of Irish SAT music and culture as if in a dream. Donnacha Dennehy's SAT concerto for amplified violin and orchestra Elastic Harmonic SAT places the violin like a "floating body over the orchestra, SAT " and David Fennessy's inspiration was an image he had of a SAT microscopic orchestra all seated in the swirl of a SAT fingerprint: at the point of contact between a bowed open SAT string and a violinist's finger an entire orchestral sound SAT was seeps out from beneath it.

SUN SUN 18:30 Words and Music b01scxl5 (Listen) SUN I Love No Leafless Land SUN SUN Readers: Lucy Briers and Gerard Murphy. SUN SUN Taking its title from words by A E Housman, this edition of SUN Words and Music is inspired by trees. SUN SUN There are individual real trees such as Sassoon's "Blunden's SUN Oak", or a spectacularly "dissolving" storm-battered beech, SUN and trees that are symbolic - C. Day Lewis's Christmas Tree, SUN and the trees that mark the passing of the year. SUN SUN With poetry on the relationships between people and trees, SUN the pleasure and pain of being solitary (Walt Whitman) , and SUN the struggle for survival (D H Lawrence) , insistence on the SUN need for trees (Gerard Manley Hopkins "Binsey Poplars, SUN felled") and meditations on long life and ageing (W H SUN Davies). SUN SUN There are also celebrations of the sheer beauty and SUN abundance of trees. Trees have spirits, so the Green Man SUN makes his appearance, as do the dryads and hamadryads of SUN mythology. (Shakespeare, James Thomson, C S Lewis) SUN SUN The words are interleaved seamlessly with music, including SUN Respighi's Pines, song settings by Butterworth and Madeleine SUN Dring, an atmospheric evocation of acacias by Toru Takemitsu SUN and some music generated by the wood of the trees SUN themselves, using electronics and a modified turntable.

Old Yew SUN Lucy Briers SUN SUN Producer's note SUN Taking its title from words by A E Housman, this edition of SUN Words and Music is inspired by trees. SUN Beginning with the cherry tree laden with blossom (Housman SUN again, set by Butterworth), the leaves rustling in the SUN breeze (Sinding’s famous piano piece Rustle of Spring ), and SUN Browning’s longing for the quintessential English SUN countryside (Home Thoughts from Abroad), the scene is set SUN for Sassoon’s ecstatic union of trees and the spirit of SUN poetry in Blunden’s Beech. Then the legends of two forest SUN spirits, Herne the Hunter and the Green Man, are evoked by SUN Mistress Quickly in The Merry Wives of Windsor and by SUN Charles Causley in his somewhat disturbing Green Man in the SUN Garden. SUN SUN Takemitsu’s atmospheric evocation of acacias in Tree Line SUN moves us to a more desolate scene in Gerard Manley Hopkins SUN sorrowful Binsey Poplars – felled 1879, and the windswept SUN feel of Tahmizyan’s chamber piece A Cool Wind Blowing leads SUN to reflections from D H Lawrence and Walt Whitman on the SUN pleasure and pains of being alone, like a solitary tree. But SUN loneliness is assuaged with William Meredith’s poem Tree SUN Marriage where the idea of human relationships being SUN reflected in the union of trees leads onward to P J SUN Kavanagh’s heartbreakingly nostalgic reflection on children SUN and growing up – A Single Tree. W.H.Davies writes with SUN typical simplicity on the longevity of trees, although Ben SUN Jonson assures us that length of days is not necessarily the SUN important thing in life… SUN SUN Eighteenth century Scottish poet James Thomson writes of the SUN plenty and sensuousness of tropical fruit trees in high SUN summer, and that’s followed by a feast of a different kind, SUN as C S Lewis imagines the way trees themselves might SUN celebrate – with differently textured earths and gravels – a SUN scene from Prince Caspian, accompanied by Eric Coates’ SUN jolly dance Wood Nymphs. SUN SUN Eric Whitacre has set words by e e cummings in his choral SUN piece Little Tree, with words echoed in C Day Lewis’s poem. SUN The Christmas tree is brought in from the forest, set aflame SUN with light and colour, and then cast back out into the dark, SUN although its meaning is never forgotten. Robert Herrick, SUN apparently keen to move on after Christmas, takes us through SUN the trees that should be used to mark the rest of the year. SUN One of Handel’s most famous arias, Ombra mai fu is sung by SUN the King of Persia, Xerxes, to a plane tree, a paean to its SUN peaceful shade. Then the mood moves to a more disturbing SUN mind-set with Paul Hyland’s instructions on how To make a SUN tree, followed by Billie Holiday’s haunting Strange Fruit. SUN Peter Porter talks of Respighi’s Pines of Rome in his poem SUN of the same name, and gives the trees a strange, brooding SUN presence. And the resilience of trees, pitched against the SUN might of wind and weather is celebrated and philosophised SUN upon by Richard Mabey and D H Lawrence. SUN SUN The programme closes with lines from Tennyson’s In Memorian, SUN in which the yew, the tree of death and churchyards, finally SUN intertwines itself with the human body, accompanied by SUN haunting music devised by Bartholomäus Traubeck , in which a SUN modified turntable reads data from the rings of a slice of SUN tree trunk, and converts it into musical sounds, so SUN reflecting the life of the tree itself. SUN SUN Produced by Elizabeth Funning SUN SUN 19:45 Sunday Feature b01scxl7 (Listen) SUN Jan Morris - Travels Round My House SUN SUN Jan Morris knows a good story when she sees one, and she is SUN one too. SUN SUN A gravestone under the stairs; a posthumous book written and SUN printed; over 60 books - history, biography and novels under SUN her belt; Jan Morris has lived and written as a man, as a SUN woman, and believes one day she may transcend both SUN conditions. SUN SUN As the 60th anniversary of Hillary and Tenzing's conquering SUN of Everest approaches, writer and critic Anthony Sattin SUN visits the Welsh home of Jan Morris and gets an exclusive SUN peek into the scrap books and mementoes from that great SUN Imperial adventure - part of the sketches and the relics of SUN a lifetime's travel. SUN SUN Morris recalls the scoop that made her reputation; joining SUN the successful Everest expedition of 1953, and, against SUN extraordinary odds, reporting the successful ascent back to SUN The Times of London, in code, and in perfect timing - the SUN news reached London to be announced on the morning of the SUN Coronation. SUN SUN To ferry the news back to London she employed two runners SUN who actually ran all the way from her wind-battered tent at SUN the foot of Everest, 180 miles to Kathmandu and back; SUN avoiding the clutches of Daily Mail journalists, eager to SUN steal the story. SUN SUN A committed Welsh Nationalist Republican - though not SUN actively involved in burning things down or blowing them up SUN - Morris tells of early years in Wales, hobnobbing with more SUN active nationalists, and of her infatuation with things as SUN diverse as Manhattan and her recently deceased cat Ibsen. SUN She also discusses the 'ten confused years' during which she SUN undertook gender reassignment, and the approach of mortality SUN - hence the gravestone under the stairs. SUN SUN Fellow writers Pico Iyer and Sara Wheeler, both talk of the SUN inspiration she has provided over the years. SUN SUN And for Jan, the last word, "It was all in aid of fun". SUN SUN Presenter: Anthony Sattin SUN Reader: Eleanor Bron SUN Producer: Sara Jane Hall. SUN SUN 20:30 Drama on 3 b01ryflg (Listen) SUN Curated by Mark Ravenhill, Jungle of Cities SUN SUN By Bertolt Brecht, in a translation by Anselm Hollo. SUN SUN Adapted for radio by Mark Ravenhill. SUN SUN First performed in 1923 (then revised in 1927), 'Im Dickicht SUN der Städte' is one of Brecht's earliest plays, in which he SUN began to move away from the influence of Expressionism SUN towards a new style. His sources ranged from the bizarre SUN facts of a real-life Chicago murder in 1912, to 'Une Saison SUN en Enfer' and the relationship between Rimbaud and Verlaine, SUN to J V Jensen's 'The Wheel' and Upton Sinclair's 'The SUN Jungle'. SUN SUN He fused them all into this darkly compelling vision of the SUN impossibility of real human contact in 'the crushing impact SUN of cities' - Brecht's vision of the mechanistic inhumanity SUN and poverty of the early twentieth-century city. SUN SUN Brecht wrote in a programme for the play: 'An idealised SUN fight such as can be seen in the play ... is at present only SUN to be found in the theatre. ... [Its] simple basic SUN conception is that pure sport might involve two men in a SUN fight which transforms them and their economic circumstances SUN to the point of unrecognisability. The passion for sport is SUN here being classed with all the other passions already at SUN the theatre's disposal. ... The territory used for fighting SUN in this play is probably unfamiliar. For the territory so SUN used consists in certain complexes of ideas which a young SUN man like George Garga holds about the family, about SUN marriage, or about his own honour. His opponent uses these SUN complexes of ideas in order to damage him. Moreover, each SUN combatant stimulates such thoughts in the other as must SUN destroy him; he shoots burning arrows into his head.' SUN (translation: Gerhard Nellhaus) SUN SUN George Garga .....

This week, Donald Macleod explores the life and MON music of Johann Nepomuk Hummel. At the height of his career, MON Hummel was the most expensive teacher in Germany, whose MON virtuosic performances as a pianist had audiences standing MON on their seats to get a better view. He was the favourite MON pupil of Mozart, and seen in his day as Haydn's musical MON heir. Robert Schumann shyly wrote to Hummel asking for MON lessons, whilst Franz Schubert dedicated his last three MON piano sonatas to him. Hummel's life wasn't all fame and MON glory. He had to rely significantly on royal patrons for MON survival and relations with these benefactors often MON deteriorated into heated disputes. At the height of his MON power, he campaigned for a uniform copyright law allowing MON future composers to be paid for performances of their music, MON and his work as a pianist and teacher established principles MON which are still followed today. MON MON Johann Nepomuk Hummel came from a musical background, and MON his talent was quickly recognised. As a boy he played both MON piano and violin, but one street performance led to a fight MON with another boy, and Hummel clouted the lad over the head MON with his violin and smashed it to bits. Hummel may have been MON reticent about playing the violin from this point, but he MON still composed for the instrument, including his Sonata for MON Piano and Violin Concertanti. MON MON Hummel was soon introduced to Mozart, who allowed the young MON boy to live with him for around two years. Here, Hummel MON learned more about music and met many famous people. Hummel MON and Mozart often played piano duets together and Hummel MON would go on to compose a number of piano duets, including MON his Piano Sonata in A flat, Op.92. MON MON The piano would become very significant in Hummel's career MON as a teacher, performer and composer. He wrote numerous MON piano sonatas and concertos. However, Hummel was also MON interested in composing for other, less conventional, MON instruments, such as his Mandolin Concerto in G.

His emphasis on timbre reaches MON beyond power, though, finding subtle shadings that lend his MON vibraphone a distinctive and wholly contemporary sound. MON Adasiewicz has a grounding in straightahead jazz but also in MON the avant-garde of his native Chicago.

This week Donald Macleod explores the life and TUE music of Johann Nepomuk Hummel. TUE TUE Hummel was making quite a name for himself, and was now in TUE close contact with Haydn. It was Haydn who supported Hummel TUE in applying for a number of royal positions, and he was TUE eventually appointment Director of Music to Haydn's own TUE patron, Prince Esterhazy. The Prince had already become TUE acquainted with the music of Hummel, in particular his TUE Trumpet Concerto in E flat, which remains the composer's TUE calling card today. TUE TUE Hummel's contract to the Prince gave him a good salary and TUE lodging at the palace of Eisenstadt, where he was required TUE to take over a number of duties from Papa Haydn. However, TUE Haydn was a hard act to follow and young Hummel found TUE himself resented amongst his colleagues, and was soon at TUE loggerheads with the Prince. Part of Hummel's duties during TUE this time were to compose a number of sacred works for TUE Prince Esterhazy. These include the Mass in B flat major, TUE which pleased the Prince greatly.

This week Donald Macleod explores the life and WED music of Johann Nepomuk Hummel. WED WED Hummel soon found himself returning to Vienna, dismissed by WED Prince Esterhazy in 1811. One bone of contention was that WED Hummel spent too much time writing stage works to be WED performed in Vienna instead of carrying out his official WED duties at Eisenstadt. One such stage work was Hummel's WED opera, Mathilde von Guise, about a fictitious princess who WED wishes to marry below her station. WED WED In was in Vienna that Hummel met Beethoven and the two WED developed a rocky friendship. Soon, Hummel got married to a WED famous singer of the day, Elizabeth Rockel. This caused WED further tension between the two composers, as Beethoven may WED have had romantic designs on Rockel as well. Elizabeth would WED go on to sing a number of Hummel's songs, of which he WED composed many, including his Air a la Tirolienne with WED variations. WED WED Hummel didn't remain in Vienna long and, with the support of WED his wife, started to tour as a pianist again. His name was WED becoming more recognised around Europe and, with this WED success, came the offer of a new position to the Wurttemberg WED Court in Stuttgart in 1816. He wowed the Stuttgart audiences WED with his piano playing, possibly with one of his recent WED compositions, the Piano Concerto in A minor Op.85.

This week Donald Macleod explores the life and THU music of Johann Nepomuk Hummel. THU THU Whilst at the court in Stuttgart, Hummel had the luxury of THU working with one of the best orchestras in Germany, that THU included the virtuoso bassoonist Anton Romberg. It may well THU have been during this period that Hummel and Romberg THU performed the composers Grande Concerto in F for Bassoon and THU Orchestra. However, Hummel was not destined to stay long in THU Stuttgart as his relations with the authorities deteriorated THU to a point of no return. THU THU By 1819, Hummel was appointed Master of Music to the Grand THU Duke of Weimar, where he'd remain for the rest of his life. THU Hummel's responsibilities were mainly to conduct the court THU orchestra, most often in the performance of opera. Hummel THU didn't promote many of his own stage works during his time THU in Weimar, although he'd composed many theatrical works THU including music for the ballet The Magic Castle. THU THU Hummel's contract at Weimar allowed him greater freedom than THU any of this previous court positions had. He was given THU regular time off each year to tour as a concert pianist, THU including travelling to Russia where he met John Field, and THU to Warsaw where he met Chopin. His name became well known THU far and wide, and Hummel soon found himself propositioned by THU an Edinburgh businessman to set some Scottish folksongs THU including, For the sake o' Somebody.

THU THU Premiered in Paris on 29th May 1913, with revolutionary THU choreography by Vaslav Nijinsky for Sergei Diaghilev's THU Ballets Russes, Stravinsky's music, depicting a pagan rite THU in spring, included many new techniques, sounds and rhythms THU that continue to influence composers to this day. THU THU Tonight's conductor and composer Matthias Pintscher is THU certainly influenced by Stravinsky's writing, and in the UK THU premiere of his double trumpet concerto Chute d'Étoiles, he THU pays homage to the great German artist Anselm Kiefer's 2007 THU installation in the Grand Palais, Paris, a great experiment THU in weight and movement conjuring a shower of falling stars THU and exploring creation and destruction, emerging and THU obliteration. THU THU Music by Bach, who perhaps explored the same themes from an THU overtly religious point of view, starts the concert THU musically over 260 years before it finishes.

FRI FRI 12:00 Composer of the Week b01scy9t (Listen) FRI Johann Nepomuk Hummel (1778-1837), Hummel's Final Years FRI FRI Described as the Napoleon of the Piano, Chopin said he was FRI one of the three greatest masters alongside Mozart and FRI Beethoven. This week, Donald Macleod explores the life and FRI music of Johann Nepomuk Hummel. FRI FRI Hummel was now famous all over Europe. The composer Robert FRI Schumann wrote to Hummel asking for lessons although, by FRI this stage, Hummel was minimising his teaching activities to FRI focus on composition. Hummel did continue to tour throughout FRI Europe, offering audiences works like his Rondo Brillant FRI Op.98 and his Septet in C, nicknamed as "The Military". FRI However, the older Hummel got, the less popular his concerts FRI became. He was increasingly considered old-fashioned FRI compared to popular new musical tastes such as the Paganini FRI craze. FRI FRI Towards the end of his life, Hummel worked hard to improve FRI the situation of his musicians at Weimar, and also their FRI widows and orphans, organising and giving regular concerts FRI to generate money for them. By March 1837, Hummel gave his FRI last public performance. Hummel composed a number of sacred FRI works such as his Missa Solemnis in C. At his memorial FRI concert, an unknown mass by the composer was performed. FRI FRI Hummel set the benchmark for future pianists and also FRI campaigned tirelessly for the uniformity of musical FRI copyright laws in Germany. Goethe, a friend of Hummel's at FRI Weimar, considered the composer to be the Napoleon of the FRI Piano. One of Hummel's greatest works, which has kept his FRI name famous today, is his Piano Sonata in F sharp minor. FRI FRI 13:00 Radio 3 Lunchtime Concert b01ngqsn (Listen) FRI Clandeboye Festival 2012, Barry Douglas FRI FRI In the last programme from the Clandeboye Festival 2012, FRI Barry Douglas performs solo piano music by Brahms and FRI Schubert and in between is joined by cellist Andres Diaz to FRI perform Brahms's Cello Sonata No 1in E minor. Schubert's FRI Wanderer Fantasy brings the series to a close - it was FRI composed in 1822 and each of the four movements is connected FRI by a fragment of Schubert's song The Wanderer, which is the FRI basis of the second movement. FRI FRI Johannes Brahms FRI 3 Intermezzi Op.117 for piano FRI Barry DOUGLAS - Piano FRI FRI Brahms: Cello Sonata in E minor, Op. 38 FRI Andres Diaz (cello), Michael McHale (piano) FRI FRI Schubert: Wanderer Fantasy FRI Barry Douglas (piano). FRI FRI 14:00 Afternoon on 3 b01scysx (Listen) FRI BBC Philharmonic on Tour, Episode 4 FRI FRI With Jonathan Swain. FRI FRI To close our week of afternoons with the BBC Philharmonic FRI featuring performances they've given around the world, we FRI begin a concert they gave in Japan just a few weeks ago. FRI Conductor Yutaka Sado was keen for audiences in his native FRI country to hear the music of Britten, a composer he FRI passionately champions, and especially Britten's landmark FRI opera from 1945, Peter Grimes. Here Sado presents the 'Four FRI Sea Interludes' to begin Afternoon on 3. FRI FRI When Spanish-born Juanjo Mena joined the BBC Philharmonic FRI two years ago as Chief Conductor, he was similarly keen to FRI explore a British vein, and here he conducts the Enigma FRI Variations, portraits of Elgar's friends "pictured within". FRI The last two works this week are in performances given by FRI the orchestra on tour in Austria and Germany: Gianandrea FRI Noseda conducts Beethoven's Violin Concerto in Vienna with FRI Armenian soloist Sergey Khachatryan, and Rachmaninov's FRI powerful and tragic First Symphony in Aachen in northern FRI Germany.

FRI FRI Live from the Barbican Centre, London FRI FRI Presented by Petroc Trelawny FRI FRI Jonathan Lloyd: New Balls FRI Brahms: Piano Concerto No 2 FRI FRI 20:35 Interval: Petroc Trelawny selects music from Stephen FRI Hough's long recording career FRI FRI 20:55 FRI Tippett: Symphony No 1 FRI FRI Jonathan Lloyd's RPS commission New Balls for winds and FRI brass is a companion piece to his Old Racket for strings, FRI heard earlier in the BBC Symphony Orchestra's current FRI season. Another feature of the orchestra's season has been FRI appearances by the great British pianist Stephen Hough, who FRI tonight plays Brahms's epic, highly symphonic Second Piano FRI Concerto. Famous for the glorious cello melody that opens FRI the slow movement as well as a coruscating and innovative FRI Scherzo, this masterful concerto is hugely admired by Hough, FRI a composer in his own right whose works have been performed FRI by the BBC Symphony Orchestra. Completing the cycle of FRI Tippett symphonies, the BBC SO and conductor James Gaffigan FRI reach the First, a work conceived whilst Tippett was in FRI prison as a conscientious objector and completed as war FRI ended in 1945. Bursting with vitality and insistent rhythms, FRI it has many hallmarks of his later style, with a darkly FRI Purcellian set of variations and a highly wrought double FRI fugue to finish. FRI FRI 22:00 The Verb b01scz0v (Listen) FRI Radio 3's 'Cabaret of the Word' presented by Ian McMillan FRI with Holly Pester, Melvyn Burgess and Don Paterson.

FRI FRI It's the early 1960s, and the country is as yet undisturbed FRI by mass tourism. As Raphael travels to a remote island, FRI echoes of the classical world rub up against the realities FRI of post civil war division, and a village life which has FRI barely changed for centuries. FRI FRI 23:00 World on 3 b01scz60 (Listen) FRI Al Scorch and the Country Soul Ensemble in Session FRI FRI Mary Ann Kennedy with tracks from across the globe, and a FRI studio session with Chicago-based band Al Scorch and the FRI Country Soul Ensemble. FRI FRI This is the first visit to the UK by a musician who FRI describes his style as "grafting literate, character-driven FRI song craft and Mid-American roots with a post-punk DIY FRI attitude". It has also been called 'the other side of the FRI Mountain Music', and in his album 'Board up the Windows' he FRI brings to life vivid characters from American life: a hearse FRI driver bound for the cemetery, a Civil War soldier, a couple FRI whose home is threatened by developers, songs powered by FRI heartfelt singing and furious banjo picking.
